Elite figures like, Undertaker, Big Show and the Legends are great, because they're perfect. They are flexible and full body tone.
Like, Elite Ortons are great because since the pre-steroid, thats how Orton looks, but they to make him a little more bigger.

Jericho, Miz and Basic 10 HHH.
And as of late, Sheamus has been looking leaner, more like his Basic style body.

Christian's Elite seems to have an awkward body... short legs or something... thats the only one I can think of, I would imagine that they try to make elites better since they're for older collectors.

I have always preferred Basic....although as of late, I have been buying more Elites than I did when they first come out.....the small torso is something that doesn't work on most wrestlers....Often I will buy both and use the accessories to dress up the basic figs, then I sell/trade the fig I don't want.

Batista EC is the best basic there is. All his tatts are painted, he has the 2 tone boots and beard! Perfect. The elite Batista is not as nice.

Basic Torso on Elite legs and trunks
this is the ultimate solution, now they can either make them all come with gear/clothing/entrance attire or None ( which would suck) so if they did do this hybrid figure what price point??
u cant make me believe just that UGLY torso makes it $15.99.. some elites dont come with gear ne way!
i just HATE the look of that abdominal joint.. i only display my childhood memories, and favs so i am thankful Macho Man L5 has his TEE SHIRT and I LOVED ENTRANCE GREATS!! HBK, MillionDollarMan,Piper,Y2J,
sorry 2 jump off topic, to answer this topic question..i LIKE every basic personally better, BUT i Like HHH and CENA Better in ELiTE.. but my reason 4 that is simple: the BIGGER Basic torso has raging BIG LATS that u would only see if either cena or hunter got pumped and struck a pose!

I'm can't think of any... Always thought all elites were better than their basic counterparts. agreed. basic's standing "stance" just looks awkward on 99% of the figures.

I'm more of a basic fan myself, since I could do without the extra articulation, but I do buy the occasional Elite when the accessories are a major part of the superstar (Morrison, Cena, Undertaker) or if it looks better than the Basic. With that being said, here's my list of basic figures that are better than their Elite counterparts.
Just to name a few:
Any Chris Jericho 2-packs 6 Vladimir Kozlov WM26 Shawn Michaels 2-packs 1 Santino Marella 2-packs 8 Cody Rhodes Basic 10 or 2-packs 7 Dolph Ziggler Any Mark Henry
